HKJC, BREEDERS’ CUP GIVEN RACING TRUST MARK Three new betting operators have received the Racing Trust Mark from the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities. The Hong Kong Jockey Club, Breeders= Cup and The Jockey Club of Turkey have been recognized by the label, which Adistinguishes authorized businesses from all those mainly off-shore operations that cause unfair competition by operating outside the law and without agreement of the tracks or economic return to the horsemen,@ according to a re- lease from the IFHA. Maurits Bruggink, IFHA's Execu- tive Director, said in the statement, "With the develop- ment and roll-out of new technologies like digital and interactive TV, global satellite broadcasting, broadband communications, webstreaming and so forth, the racing product will become further globalised. We aim to do everything we can to promote rule-based trade in the racing and betting product, and stand up against pirat- ing business. The Racing Trust Mark is the community for those who support this idea." The IFHA was estab- lished in 1993; its members include racing authorities in over 50 countries. www.pinoakstud.com TDN P HEADLINE NEWS • 5/25/07 • PAGE 5 of 5

News Today cont. PREAKNESS TOP SPORTS PROGRAM OF WEEKEND NBC Sports has announced the coverage of the May 19 GI Preakness S. was the highest-rated sports broadcast of last weekend, garnering a 4.9 na- tional rating, 13 share for the total program. Those ratings bested the NBA playoff game between San Antonio and Utah, which did a 3.0/7. In all, the Preakness had 7.2-million viewers, compared to the four million who tuned into the Yankees--Mets game on Fox. The numbers were down slightly from the 2006 Preakness, which earned 5.4/14. Each rating point is approximately 1.1-million viewers, while the share is equivalent to the percentage of televisions tuned into the broadcast. Pimlico reported that 121,263 fans attended the 132nd Preakness, a record for a sporting event in Maryland. The all-sources handle for the day was $87,194,161, the fourth-highest in history and virtually equally with 2006, when the handle was $87.5 million. The record was set in 2005 with a han- dle of $91 million.

MASS CAP TO RETURN The Massachusetts H. will be back on the Suffolk Downs stakes calendar this fall, the Daily Racing Form reports. The nine-furlong race, which had to be scrapped three of the last four years, is tentatively scheduled to be run in late September. The purse has not yet been announced, but, according to DRF, it will be six figures. Suffolk will also offer bonuses tied to major stakes in the division, hoping to encourage Breeders= Cup Classic candidates to prep in the race. The Mass Cap was last contested in 2004, when Offlee Wild beat Funny Cide by a head, and will not be eligible for graded status this year.
